Emergency Preparedness

Preparing for a Disaster

Emergencies can happen at any time: Natural disasters. Technology-related disasters. Man-made disasters such as explosions or bomb threats. Being prepared with the knowledge and skills to respond effectively to these emergencies can make the vital difference between becoming a victim and protecting yourself and the people around you. Your UCSF Police Department has taken important steps to help you obtain the information and skills needed for effective emergency preparedness.
